Tailors in Saigon
Many a man and woman has dreamed of suiting up like Kingsman agents or Harvey Specter in the Suits TV series while walking down the street or savoring a glass of whisky.
Not only can a suit confer a sense of individuality and boost your confidence like these on-screen characters’, it also makes others look at you in a different way. From formal suits to casual suits to tuxedos, you can suit up and look sharp on all sorts of occasions all year round.
Scroll down for our list of the most recommended suit tailors in Saigon for all budgets.
1. Nhựt Tailor – sophisticated European-style cuts

Established in 1965, Nhựt Tailor is one of the most long-running tailor shops in Vietnam. They offer a gamut of styles, from single-breasted to double-breasted to slim fit suits in a wide range of colors and patterns. The suits are cut to the body with a Roman shoulder and sharp silhouette.
Another thing to notice here is that the shop puts more focus on European cuts with slim and athletic fits cropped in at the waist, for those who’d like a change for the usual looser-fit US cuts.

For a sophisticated look suitable for formal occasions, go for double-breasted suits with two columns of detailed buttons and overlapping panels. If you’re going for a Hollywood-level posh look, try a traditional black tuxedo with a cummerbund.
In case this is your first time shopping for a single-breasted suit with one column of button(s), remember to button only the top button when standing, and unbutton when sitting. This will help you sit more comfortably and prevent your blazer from wrinkling.
